3 Cushion Billiard Systems: Billiard Secrets from a Professional Amateur Spiral-bound – March 7, 2009

It was a very good book in that it explains 3 cushion billiards from the view of a beginner to an expert!!

This is a collection of inaccurately drawn and poorly labeled hand drawings with little to no accompanying coherent explanation. The only discussion is at the very beginning, on using stances and bridges, alas without a single depiction of either. The various diamond systems promised are given without text or context, only by name and diagrams with cryptic labels like "5.0 - 3.5 + area adjustment 8'' = 1.5" that go absolutely unexplained anywhere. Unless you have access to the author personally, I strongly advise against buying this volume, because rather than a book it is the author's personal doodle pad in print. I recommend "Byrne's Pool and Billiards" books instead.

Great product. Recommended.

The book is hard to understand because of poor explanation. The author is very knowledgeable but he could not share his experience effectively. Beside, there are several mistakes in system figures and the diamond number system is unnecessarily complicated. In general, the book requires a high level experience in 3-cushion with patience and thinking to understand.

Lots of diagrams and very little text. Hard to understand or apply to my 3CB game. Very disappointed.

It was poorly organized, and poorly written. Sid Banner was a good 3 cushion player, but this did not convey his knowledge, or an approach to take for banks, and kicks. I've seen other material that deals with banks, and kicks much better.

some explanations of calculating angles is not very clear
